Glitzrovia

As far as London locations go, you can't beat Fitzrovia. It's walking distance from buzzy Soho and the West End, a stone's throw from Oxford Street and leafy Regent's Park, and has a diverse array of restaurants, pubs, and other eateries. Smack dab in all the action is this stylish home. Set over four floors, you'll have plenty of room to get comfortable. The kitchen in the basement comes with all the culinary gadgets, plus a small patio. That said, our favourite room is the main suite – a long soak in the freestanding bath is the perfect way to end the day.

Home truths:
*The super king-sized bed in the second bedroom can be converted into two single beds upon request.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host may be able to provide a travel cot upon request.
*This home is spread across four levels, with stairs connecting each level. The top floor tends to be a tad chillier than the others and can take a little while to warm up in the winter.
*We think the private patio looks a little tired and could do with a small refresh. That said, it's still a nice spot to enjoy a glass of wine in the summer.
*A car isn’t needed in this location. Instead of driving, explore on foot or take advantage of the nearby public transport – multiple Tube stations are within walking distance.
